Mojo122

I was so inspired by this paper from My Mind's Eye, I just love the colours in it!

I punched out a few hearts from the paper and glued them onto the narrow panel and punched out some smaller ones from the teal Bazzill card stock and arranged for some movement.

I had the idea to use these strung seed beads in place of the stem that the (hearts or petals?) are attached by, so I used some crystal effects to adhere. I stamped the sentiment and punched out with the small SU oval punch and placed behind the metal HP hardware. I added 2 K & CO. rhinestones in the same aqua/teal colour as the Bazzil and then placed it over the larger panel with some dimensional foam. There is a strand of the beads and a strand of embroidery thread wrapped around the bottom of the narrow panel. Hope you like these colours too! Thanks for a great sketch Julie!

What great ideas you have Chriss! Using the punches to peek-a-boo to the paper that you added those neat bead strings to! I am always looking for inspiration to use the hodgepodge so thanks for sharing! :D
